Watch 'Em, Sergeant.

We caution our citizens to be
upon their guard and closely watch
the movements Of members OF the
Ring faction who wish to run the
political machinery of this parish,
for we learn they are endeavoring
to organize their forces in order to
capture some Of the wards in the
coming election of delegates to the
State convention. Doodle, we are
told, is being quietly and lavishly
expended by some OF the leaders Of
the ring faction throughout different
parts Of the State to further their
cause. If our citizens will only be
alive 10 the true interests OF the
State, and attend promptly all the
ward meetings, good and true 4
will be selected to represent US in
the State nominating convention,
who will faithfully and c%onscien.
ciously discharge their full duty
Every moment from this until the
dominating convention should be
filed with work by all who are
interested in the success Of General
Francis T. Nichols. A thorough
and Systematic canvass should be
made in every voting precinct il
every portion Of the parish in order
to make a clean sweep and leave no
cause for contests. The Ring have
heaps OF Doodle and an immense
number Of government omce-holders
to assist it, still a long pull and
a strong pail and a pull altogether,
at the proper time-apd that's jus:
now-wiIl result in a glorious vic.
tory for us the 10th Of next January.
Be watchful and earnest 10 your
work. remembering always that DO
great success was ever accomplished
without eternal vigilance and honest,
determined work. A victory awaits
as, shall we overtake it, If so, we
must watch 'em, sergeant.

Railroad Talk.

The citizens of Lafayette aud Yer
million particles have d~eserved|y
won much praise in the past by
their efforts made to secure the
much desired railroad from Alb.
bcville to Lafayette, but for some
cause the project was dropped and
Just now there is a decided lack Of
interest taken in tho matter, while
no better opportunity was ever
offered than at the present time.
Cannot we go to work and revive
the interest heretofore taken in the
matter. Let a citizens committee
be formed, and we feel snre a good,
honest effort will meet with success.
There is nothing mere important.
or that would tend to advance the
growth Of Lafayette and materially
help the interests Of both parishes
than a railroad from Abheville to
Lafayette. We intend to keep peg
gins away at this thing until some
thing is donc.--Lafayette Adver-
tiser.
The citizens Of Termiiicu parish
arc perfectly willing 10 cooperate
with Lafayette in building a railroad
from that place to this. II they
mean business over there. let q com.
mittee be appointed from among its
citizens, advise us Of that fact and
we will soon thereafter call a mass
meeting and appoint a like commit
tee to confer with the committee
from that place upon the best meth.
oes to be adopted to further the
enterprise and secure a railroad be
tween both places. A railroad from
Lafayette to Abbeville would. open
up @ convenient route to trade and
travel, one Of the richest and most
beautiful portions OF the Attakapas
country, and bring into cultivation
some Of the best now unoccupiea
lands in the State. Let the people
Of Lafayette sound the buglo with
earnest notes aud Eermilion will
promptly respond to the call. If the
peope Of Lafayette will show a spirit
Of earnestness in this enterprise, our.
word for it, the road will be built
and that place soon made one of the
greatest railroad centers in the
Southern country.

HEALTH HINTS.


The best promoters of health are fresh
air and sunlight
A simple remedy for neuralgia head
ache is the juice Of lemon taken in a
cup Of black coffee.
Changes Of dress from thick to thin
should always be made in the morning,
as then all the vital forces are in full play.
Almost all bites and stings being acid
in their nature the cure is an alkali.
Spirits of hartshorn is the best houshold
remedy; next comes saleratus or lye from
Mood ashes.
For warts, corns aud other indurations
of the cutcle, nothing acts more salts
factoriy than mixture of equal parts of
tincturo ofiodine and glacial acetic acid,
applied in repeated layers with brush,
night and morning.
1t has been shown by actual expert
ment that the water which streams down
the inside Of the window of a closed
sleeping-room is so impregnated with the
noXious eXhalations of the sleepers that
one drop is sufficient to poison a rabbit.
1t is said that solution of pilocarpine,
two grains to the ounce of water, in
JCCJcu lu'O Jue IOOln Cavity Will cure
neuralgia caused by bad teeth. From an
eighth to quarter of grain seems suf-
ficient to check the pain in the course of
an hour.
Water cannot satisfy the thirst which
attends cholera, dysentery, diarrhpa and
some other forms of disease; in fact,
drinking cold water seems to increase
the thirst and induce other disagreeable
sensations; but the thirst will be perfectly
and pleasantly subdued by eating com
paratively small amount of ice, swallow
ing 1t in as large pieces as practicable
and as much as is wanted.
NJ. Ginjeot states that of all measures
applied locally to boils, the best results
are obtained from tincture iodine. He
paints the boil with thick coating, and
sometimes single application is suffi
cient to cause the Inflammation to sub
side; it is better, however, to make the
application several times a day for several
days. He does not recommend the early
opening of boils, but if evacuation of pus
be necessary antiseptics should be used.

Arsenic for the Comnlexion.

L. T. S. writes: Is it safe to take
arsenic for the complexion2"
1t is not at all safe; in fact, arsenic
will not improve the complexion, except
at the expense of health. For many
years the public has been complaining
about arsenic in wall papers and dyes
used for articles of clothing. When peo-
pie are made sick by these causes, how
much more terrible must be the illness
caused by taking arsenic into the stom-
ach. Anyone who uses arsenic for the
complexion does 1t at deadly peril
Some of the physicians of this city re-
Gently have been treating women for
some unknown disease, which they were
not able to diagnose. Finally they found
that their patients were secretly taking
arsenic for the complexion. Their eyes
were pulled out and their face had a
deathly pallor, such as is caused by poi
son from minerals. -NeW York Neaos.

Snrendinr Eve nlsnnses.

To mention few of the modes Of eye
disease contagion, have TO speak, in
the first place, of towels, says writer in
the Medical and Surgical journal, espe-
cially of that abominable institution
known as the roller towel which has
been used so much in Rsylums where
forty, fifty or more children use the same
towel, whether they have granular lids or
not. True, in great many of these
cases the existence Of granular lids was
not known; but even in cases in which
the existence of the disease was evident,
the ignorance or carelessness of the per-
sons in charge has allowed transmission
by means Of towels to be one of the most
fre luent sources of contagion. Asa car
rier of the contagion, the house fly plays
an important role, especially in cases Of
Young children who are not able to pro-
tect themselves against the visits of this
little animal Attracted by the sweetish
odor of the DISCHARGE, it will settle upon
the eyes OF children affected with the
disease, especially infants, and carry the
contagion in its claws to the other eye or
the eyes Of the sleeping infants.

Bicycling ExtraOrdinarr.

An extraordinary bicycling race was
recently decided in connection with the
South Australian Cyclists Union at Ade-
laide. 1t occurred in the final heat of
the Walker handicap and the bicycle OBJ E
stacle race. The conditions of the OBJ
stacle race were, First lap-To ride
round, lift machines over five hurdles,
mounting machines after getting over
hurdles, except the last one, when you
run to the centre of the oval, lie on your
back and cat a roll Second lap-Crawl
through the bags under tarpaulin and
through casks, run one hundred yards
with bicycle, mount and finish lap in
the saddle, dismounting opposite pavil-
ion. Third lap-Run to centre of oval,
put on coat and bell-topper and ride to
the scoring board at the south end, then
across the oval and over the water jump,
round the flag, on to the track, and fin
ish. Enormous crowds witnessed this
event, and the obstacle amateur cham
pion was the hero of the hour in Ade-
laide cycling circles.
